Glencoe

Overview

Top site for photography

A glorious campsite location at the foot of the Scottish mountains.

Walking boots are a must for campers visiting our Glencoe Club campsite. Surrounded by National Trust for Scotland managed woodland, this is wonderful walking country. The West Highland Way passes within nine miles of the campsite and there are many other low and high-level walks. You can even bag yourself a Munro or two – there are eight within the vicinity of the site.

Whichever of the 102 pitches you choose at Glencoe, you’re guaranteed stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The facilities are excellent and include a laundry, locker room and drying shed.

The eco-friendly Glencoe National Trust for Scotland Visitor Centre is a short walk from the campsite. It has interactive displays, a shop and a café. In nearby Glencoe the Glencoe and North Lorn Folk Museum gives an interesting insight into the history of the area.

Glencoe Activities in Ballachulish offers a choice of 20 activities and tours – from golf and canyoning to rib and Segway tours.

More relaxing pursuits include a ferry ride across Loch Linnhe or embark on what’s regarded to be one of the greatest railway journey’s in the world from Fort William on the Jacobite steam train .

Reviews

We had the best time at Glencoe.

We had the best time at Glencoe. Stephen and Maureen earn top marks as wardens going that extra mile to help you feel welcome. They have obviously worked hard making the site itself as beautiful as the surrounding mountains and countryside. They take great pride in keeping all the facilities as clean as any we have seen on our travels. Outside of the site there is so much to see and do you can never get bored. Stephen pointed us in the direction of Glen Etive and it was well worth the drive down the single track road, stunning views all the way to the loch where we were lucky enough to see a small herd of deer with a magnificent stag and to hear him calling out to other stags in the area. We will definitely be staying at Glencoe site again but to enjoy Stephen and Maureens hospitality we will have to go to the Oban site, and that is also a definate.
